Facial acne scars are characterized either by loss of tissue (ice pick or pitted, indented boxcar scars, rolling acne scars) or by the abnormal formation of new thickened tissues.
Those acne welts are injuries caused to the cells lining the sebum canals when there is a sudden outflow of sebum to the outer layer of the skin due to hormonal disequilibria or due to increased pressure on those cells coming from blockage of such outflow by clogged or blocked skin pores.
In truth acne scarring is the end result when our immune response has to rely just on its own resources to fix acne punctures, for then it acts according to the evolutionary lesson it learned during our evolutionary drift:
All wounds or wounds, scrapes or blisters represent a dangerous threat to our survival, not only due to blood loss, but also due to tissue damage or infection from the invasion of micro-organisms and/or foreign bodies like mud, chips and bacteria.
The healing mechanism which has evolved to react to such threats has two basic characteristics:
First, there’s a fast and robust inflaming reaction, which sets on the alarms and leads to a cascade of events that begin with an action call to its fire fighters to the injured site.
2nd, there is a fibrotic”walling-off” reaction to isolate foreign bodies, and forestall germs from ceasing the opportunity to penetrate at the site of a lesion.
Problem is those firemen arrive inflamed with chemical weapons and can care less if they also liquefy or destroy adjacent skin and lead to pustule formation. After all they’ve learned, during our evolutionary drift, that intruders at a location of lesion may become a case of life or death.
Beauty Is Not a Concern For Our Immune System
To revive the integrity of the skin as fast as possible shutting of skin chancres and repairing of missing skin tissues happen rapidly by an evolutionary mechanism that leads to granulation and fibrosis, and in other more common words: acne scars.
By contrast, when granulation tissues form in wound healing, collagen bundles are laid down in parallel between the margins of the skin chancres. The abnormal architecture of the collagen deposition creates tissues of weaker tensile strength and produces the characteristic scars.
Studies of the wound healing process in humans and in animals show, for a fact, the first 48 hours after a skin puncture are key in figuring out the scarring end result. The best outcome is when interventions are made inside this window. A possible reason is that the low number of signaling molecules in the primary cytokine cascade caused by the skin therapeutic process can have a deep effect on the levels/proportions of inflammatory cells and growth factors hired to the wound site.
In addition, the hired cells influence the receptor profiles on the target cells, further having an impact on the healing reply and subsequent scar deposition.
BIOACNECARE is a lotion with a naturally occurring serum that works well for back acne treatment. It also contains enzymes that help dissolve acne scars. The enzymes and skin regeneration accelerators in the serum make this product the best for oily skin.
